Basics of Code 2 - Weekly Course for Ages 8 - 11

**PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS COURSE'S SCHEDULE IS NOW DIFFERENT FROM PREVIOUS COMMUNICATION**

BUILDING WITH SCRATCH

Students will be required to complete Basics of Code 1 before taking this course. Prospective students with other prior programming experience will need to demonstrate an understanding of coding fundamentals via a placement test to be eligible for this course offering. Please contact us here should you wish to have your child take our placement test.

Continuing from our foundational course, Basics of Code 2 is all about application and build experience. Our Code Campers will use their foundational computational tools learnt in Basics of Code 1 to produce more complex graphical animations, design multiple game components and compose their own mini-programs in Scratch.

The projects built in this course will require students to think mathematically (using kinematic and geometric concepts) and apply creative solutions logically (story boarding, how to nest loops and conditionals and write event-driven programs). After this course, Code Campers will have the beginnings of their coding portfolio and obtained greater literacy in Scratch to continue coding semi-independently.
